Description:
When running REvaluate() or RGraph() in TERR, the following error is seen:
Error in REvaluator.(expr, substitute = FALSE, verbose = verbose, dat : The R interpreter, 'R', did not make an output file, the program probably could not be found (set options(RinR_R_FULL_PATH) or options(RinR_TERR_FULL_PATH) and call configureREvaluator)
Text output from the call to interpreter is:
<no text output produced>
Cause:
The path to the open-source R installation cannot be determined in the REvaluate() or RGraph() function call.

Issue/Introduction
Error in REvaluator when running REvaluate() or RGraph() in the RinR package.
Resolution
Add the following line of code in your TERR_HOME/etc/TERRprofile.site, where "TERR_HOME" is the path to your TERR installation:
options(RinR_R_FULL_PATH="<path>")
The <path> in this case should point at your R installation home binary path. You can obtain the R home path by running the following in R:
Sys.getenv("R_HOME")
You will need to add '/bin/R' to the returned path. For example, if Sys.getenv("R_HOME") returns:
C:\Program Files\R\R-3.4.1
then your <path> should be:
"C:/Program Files/R/R-3.4.1/bin/R"
Note that TERR and R use the slash ("/") as the path separator, even in Windows. Single backslashes ("\") will not work.
